Answer:

The correct answer will be- Endospore.

Explanation:

Bacteria under unfavourable conditions form a tough protective shell called "endospores" to ensure the survival of bacteria during environmental stress conditions.

The endospores are the tough, dormant, and non-reproductive structure produced by the bacteria belonging to the family Firmicute. The endospores provide resistance to desiccation,  temperature, chemical disinfectants, starvation, lysozyme and ultraviolet and gamma radiation.

Thus, Endospore is the correct answer.

What sort of environment (hypertonic, isotonic, hypotonic) does consuming excessive amounts of pure water create in the body flu
Vlada [557]

Consuming excessive amounts of pure water creates hypotonic environment in the body fluid surrounding the cell.

<h3>What is a hypotonic solution?</h3>
  • A solution having lower osmotic pressure than the solution to which it is compared.
  • It has lower amount of solute (high amount of solvent) compared to other solution separated by a semi-permeable membrane.
  • After consuming excessive amounts of pure water, the body fluid becomes hypotonic, so water enters from body fluid to the cell resulting in the cell to swell or break.
